We were on the Eiffel Tower, my wife and I when we were 18 years old on a camping trip through Belgium and France.
Get this...
My husband and I went up there when I was 20 and he was 25.
No problem, I loved it. Took film too.

When I went back I was with my daughter, I was 42.
I couldn't go further up than the first level. I was getting dizzy and nauseous.
Old age is terrible!

Here is the Eiffel Tower in Paris at night taken by my good Mexican friend who was visiting his daughter there in 2008View attachment 2165
You know that nigh photos of the Eiffel Tower are copyright. All began when someone added lighting to it, so photographers who take photos otf it at night, legally cannot sell them. The stupidity and arrogance of mankind.

Well just so you know I did not take them. My friend had them taken I believe by his son-in-law, but that is just a guess. Think on this also all of you Bible buyers and readers. Most of the modern Bible translations into English are under copyright. One of the few exceptions goes back a ways. That is the original Kings James Version which written I would guess in England prior to any copyright laws going into effect. A lot of companies have made use of that "free" version while others have changed things at least in part to make money.

If the words written/printed in so many Bibles are themselves the Word of God as many here say, have they put a financially purposed restriction on God's Word? Just saying...

Haha, get him to participate on the "fighting catholic" thread.
His background is unusual in that his family was never Catholic. Growing up as a non-Catholic in an essentially Catholic country [Mexico] was quite an experience. While over the years he did not always get along well with his brothers, the one place they stuck together was when any of them were persecuted in school or elsewhere because they were not Catholic. The persecution against them was strong. Talk about anti-??? no, it was not anti-Protestant for while his father held many certificates as a minister of the gospel through various Protestant groups, he never preached and he never attended any church.

Many years ago my friend came to the United States as an illegal alien. But he had already become a naturalized U.S. citizen when I met him in 1987. The way we met is another testimony which I will share at another time in another place.

Oh that post was more in line with the foolishness of ma, the canadians want to sue the aussie mint , because they hold the patent for adding colored paint to coins, so all some commemorative coins they where producing may have to be destroyed. This is the Beast, in all its glory.

And so it goes on and on, but most people cannot see the beast that already is moving and working among them.

Lake Taupo pictured above is a crater lake....there are hot spots throughout still. 1000 years ago the eruption changed the landscape of much of the North Island and was felt as far away as China.
